The sheer malevolance of the mind capable of inflicting a scarring so deep that the soul trembles at the very thought of its origins, is perhaps my first and primary takeaway when it comes to dwelling painfully on the rising and ghastly trend of acid attacks on women.
How dare she……i suppose would be the first cry of anguish in the mind of this egocentric good for nothing specimen of a coward, an idiot with nothing more than a convoluted and stereotypically patriarchal upbringing to offer.
Incapable of love or for that matter any and every emotion on the nobler side the last thing on this losers mind is caregiving, the very foundation on which the institution of marraige is based upon.
This suitor is therefore highly unsuitable for a bonding of any kind, let alone a life long commitment at sharing the ups and downs of life. Doomed hence from the very onset this dreamer is on the road to a headon collision with a gut instinct primed for detecting nincompoops since ages.
The strange part is that the antagonist realizes the inevitability of the outcome somewhere deep within the recesses of his dark heart beforehand. The layers of pseudo machismo only barely manage to conceal his insecurity. His worst nightmares come true when he fianlly comes face to face with a categoric no.
Unable to bear the pangs of coming to terms with a self so irreparably damaged the frustration then takes the form of an outburst to soothe his ruffled feathers.
The act in itself is so heinous in nature that it sends a shiver of rage down my spine. The life long repercussions to be endured by the survivor on the other hand is a tale that is too heart rending to narrate.
Suffice it would be for me to say that those that continue to find meaning in life despite of being offered a travesty of such mammoth proportions are far too beautiful for the mortal eye to comprehend.
